Author/Artist Review

Tell us a little about yourself. I'm a stay at home mom of three children, now
relocated to Southern France with my church-
planting husband. I've been writing for over
twelve years, laboring in obscurity most of the
time. I love to cook and garden. I am passionate
about worshipping Jesus musically. I absolutely
love writing and am always working at honing the
craft of writing.

What was your motivation behind this project? To create a book that used the avenue of
motherhood to help moms see their need for Jesus.

What do you hope folks will gain from this project? I grew weary of books for women, particularly
devotional books, that seemed more fluffy than
substantive. I'm an Oswald Chambers fan. I visit
him almost daily, gleaning something deep that
touches my heart. My desire for this book for
moms was to write in such a way that touches the
deepest part of a woman's heart--piercing words
that change lives.

Anything else you'd like readers / listeners to know: I am just an ordinary mom like the rest of you.
I fail. I make mistakes. I have regrets. But I
am comforted in knowing an extraordinary God
lives within me. It's for His renown that I
write.
